About this trial
This trial is an investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label Phase Ib/II study to observe the safety, tolerability, PK/PD characteristics, immunogenicity, and the efficacy of SYS6020 injection in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple sclerosis. The study plans to enroll participants with progressive or relapsing multiple sclerosis.
The recommended dosing regimen is as follows: a single administration dose of 45×10\^6 CAR-T cells/kg (allowing a fluctuation of ±20%), administered once a week for 6 consecutive doses.
To ensure participant safety, this study will establish a Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). A staggered enrollment and dosing strategy will be adopted in the early stage. Two early safety evaluation will be established (after the first 3 enrolled participants complete their first 3 infusions of SYS6020, and after the first 3 enrolled participants complete their first 6 infusions of SYS6020) for comprehensive assessment.
The study plans to enroll 10-15 participants. Once the enrollment of 10-15 participants is complete, a comprehensive assessment may be conducted based on the actual progress of the study and combined with existing data. This will fully evaluate the safety, preliminary efficacy, and PK/PD/ADA data of the enrolled participants. If the overall safety of the participants is manageable, preliminary efficacy shows a positive trend, and there are value and necessity for further exploration, expanding the number of participants may be considered (up to a maximum of 25 participants in total).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
1. Male or female participants aged 18-65 years at the time of signing informed consent.
For progressive MS: evidence of worsening disability, such as an increased Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score.
Absolute lymphocyte count ≥0.3 × 10⁹/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥1.0 × 10⁹/L, platelet count ≥50 × 10⁹/L, and hemoglobin ≥80 g/L, without red blood cell or platelet transfusion or colony-stimulating factor within 7 days before testing;
Total bilirubin ≤2 × upper limit of normal (ULN), and alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase ≤3 × ULN;
Disqualifiers
1. Uncontrolled significant chronic disease that, in the investigator's opinion, may increase the participant's risk.
Clinically significant ventricular arrhythmia, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, or another serious rhythm/conduction disorder;
Resting QT interval corrected using Fridericia's formula >450 msec for men or >470 msec for women;
Acute coronary syndrome, congestive heart failure, or another Grade ≥3 cardiovascular event within 6 months before first administration;

Treatments tested in this trial
SYS6020 injection
Biological/VaccineSYS6020 injection is an injection of autologous CAR-T cells that have been temporarily transfected with LNP-mRNA targeting BCMA. The eligible participants will receive a single administration dose of 45×10\^6 CAR-T cells/kg (allowing a fluctuation of ±20%), administered once a week for 6 consecutive doses
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Safety and tolerability
Incidence, severity, and relationship of adverse events and serious adverse events, and incidence of clinically significant laboratory abnormalities.
Secondary outcomes
Time to 12-Week Confirmed Disability Progression (CDP) in Participants with Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
Time to protocol-defined worsening in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score sustained for at least 12 weeks in participants with SPMS or PPMS
Annualized Relapse Rate (ARR) in Participants with Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis
Number of protocol-defined relapses divided by total participant-years of follow-up
Change from Baseline in EDSS(Expanded Disability Status Scale) Score
The EDSS ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater neurological disability.
Proportion of Participants with an Improvement of at Least 1.0 Point in EDSS(Expanded Disability Status Scale) Score
The EDSS ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater neurological disability.
